Running Out Of Gifting Ideas For Bhai Dooj? We’ve Got Your Back

Diwali, among many other things, is also the official season of gifting. The more gifts there are to give, the more money and thinking is involved. The dilemma of ‘what to gift?’, however, is a yearly thing that makes our mind go blank. This is especially the case for Bhai Dooj, a day that exclusively celebrates the love between brothers and sisters. 

Bhai Dooj is now around the corner, and if you still haven’t figured out what to gift your siblings or cousins, this last-minute gifting guide should straighten out everything for you. Dig in!

FOR SISTERS

A Hair Styling Kit

Be it a casual lunch, or a party, girls always want a perfect hair day. Gifting them a hairstyling kit is probably the best thing to do. If you wish to go a little easy on your pockets, you can gift your sister/s a pair of hairdryers and straightener/curlers depending on your sister’s hair type. 

Oversized Tshirts for Stayovers 

Most of the girls love to wear oversized t-shirts for purely comfort reasons. If you share a close bond with your sister/s and often meet up for sleepovers, you can buy a pair of the same oversized shirt and gift her one. So the next time you two ‘catch up’, you can chill in the same shirt! 

A Skincare and Beauty Products Hamper 

Skincare has become an essential task for everyone today. With increased pollution and biting sunrays, having a skincare and beauty routine is common. You can shop for a hamper that takes care of complete skin and hair care. Products like Olay, Forest Essential, Kama Ayurveda, Clinique and Laneige, Mama Earth, etc are known for skin and hair care products.

Sling Bag 

Slings, although old, are now again in demand. A nightout or a hanging out plan with friends, sling bags are the perfect way to complete any look you choose for the day. Websites like Nykaa, Myntra, Ajio, etc have a variety of options to choose from. 

Customised Initial Necklace

The simplest yet best gift would be a tiny, delicate initial neckpiece that your sister/s can use everyday. Brands like Accessories, H&M or even Myntra and Nykaa have such neckpieces available. You can also gift other small chains if you like.  

FOR BROTHERS 

Grooming Kit 

These days, even men have started taking good care of their hair and skin. There are many products in the market that are made especially keeping in mind men’s grooming requirements. Brands like Forest Essentials, The Man Company, Bombay Shaving Company, Qraa are some which are popular in this space. 

Wireless Headphones/Ear pods

Ear pods or cool headphones will make the men jump up in excitement. They are also easy on the pocket and absolutely useful. Be it at the jump or while commuting, headphones or earpods can be used anywhere with much convenience. Since they are wireless, they are also hassle-free. 

Digital Watch

A digital watch or a fit bit is not going to run out of fashion anytime soon. So its still makes for a good gift. If you haven’t given this as a gift, it’s not too late. Go ahead and buy one because this was is sureshot a good idea. 

Sneakers 

Do you know a single boy who isn’t crazy behind shoes? Sports shoes no doubt are expensive, but you can definitely gift your brother/s sneakers. Nike, Puma and Addidas are top brands having smart-looking sneakers which your brother/s is sure to fall head over ‘sneakers’ with.  

Backpack 

A backpack is probably the most useful gift to gift your brother/s. It can be used for office purposes or for a short trip as well. Moreover, if your brother/s always carries his laptop wherever he goes, a backpack is the perfect gift for him. 

From these few easy options, any you pick is sure to make your brothers/sisters happy on Bhai Dooj. So what are you waiting for? Step out and pick up your choice now and make this Bhai Dooj a memorable one!
